On April 19th there was a Rare Disease Day. On that day there were speeches about different types of rare diseases. Many of them I didn't even know. Even the ones I did know I learned more about them. In this event there was a bake sale. The money from the bake sale was for the DuPont Hospital and for the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. We also had blankets for auction made by Rescue Ranger members. We learned how to make those blankets from a class taught by Sister Sultan. I made one of the blankets for auction. It was hard work but it was good to know I was making it for people in need. There was also a card basket for auction. It had many beautiful cards. All the things for auction were for the Hospitals too.The total amount of money we raised on that event was more than $500! The Rare Disease Day taught many people including me more about rare diseases.
